Open Sch & Brd files together

k.portman

Is there a way to open an existing Sch & Brd file together, by default.

When I double click either Sch or Brd file name on the Eagle Control

Panel it asks "Do you also want to load xxx.brd?" (or xxx.sch). I always

respond Yes, sofar never had a need to respond No.

 

Is there a eaglerc.usr setting to force (or make as default behaviour)

the opening of Brd & Sch files together. If not, could it be

implemented. Much requested for!!!

    Start board and schematic, then run an ERC that compares board and

    schematic. If board and schematic are consistent, save board and

    schematic (both have to be loaded for this). If you now close your

    project and re-open it, EAGLE should load both files without comment.

     

    and if by chance you double click on a new file (from USB/an other

    partition/folder etc) to open with Eagle, it will stupidly:

    1. open your old sch or brd file

    2. ask you if you want to load the other file too

    3. only then will load the file on witch you double-clicked

    4. on close, that new file will be saved as "active schematic/board", so if

    you start Eagle and click on dot next to your project, it will search for

    the file from  rom USB/an other partition/folder etc.

     

    3 stupid (and wrong!!!) things in this behaviour!
